Comments on the Proposed Policy Options
Option 1 Do Nothing
This notes that there is no European plan to do what the CAA is now proposing!
Option 2 SSR Mode S on all Aeroplanes and Helicopters
This would apply to Aeroplanes and helicopters only. Gliders and balloons would be exempt.
Option 2(a) SSR Mode S and 1090ES (ADS-B 'Out') Capability on all Aeroplanes and
Helicopters
There is no policy to fit ADS-B in aeroplanes but this option would require it anyway.
Option 3 SSR Mode S on all Aircraft
This is the full proposal with a suggested exemption for local flights.
3(a) SSR Mode S and 1090ES (ADS-B 'Out') Capability on all Aircraft
Although ADS-B would not be used in the UK, this would require it to be installed from 2008.
Views on Other Potential Options Currently Discounted by the CAA
2(a)/3(a) Full 1090ES (ADS-B 'Out') Functionality that is 'Populated' with an Approved GPS
2(a)/3(a) Full 1090ES (ADS-B 'Out') Functionality on IFR Flights Only
2(a)/3(a) Full 1090ES (ADS-B 'Out') Functionality on Aeroplanes and Helicopters Only
Non-SSR Options such ADS-B via VDL Mode 4 or UAT and FLARM
Airspace Segregation of Non-Interoperable Aircraft
We note that Response 2 does not offer the option to make additional comments.
